Scored these two kits during Metro Sengkang's Gundam promotion last weekend to show my support for my neighbourhood toy store. I'm not finished with them yet, but I was fiddling around with them to see how my Gundam shelf could fit them.

Again the post has to cope with poor camera phone pix. I will get some proper pix when I'm completed with them. I've sprayed the weapons gunmetal with gloss coat, matt coated the white bits, sprayed the grey and dark blue parts and matt coated, but am still deliberating on whether to panel line these kits as the ultra white look is quite fetching, IMHO.

The eyes will be quite tedious as I'll first have to mask out the clear pink parts, spray the black area on, paint the eyes with enamel silver, then paint the eyes with acrylic green. I tried the enamel silver with acrylic paint technique previously with the eyes and scope on HG 1/144 Psycho Gundam and it turned out ok for me. Both eyes and scope were cast in black plastic.

Seeing the silvering on the decals makes me sad.

Basically, this means building the bases could very well take longer than the kits themselves.
